A few weeks ago IL report came from
Virginia that bloody tlux was epidemic
i'll Amherst, Roanoke, Bedford and
Botetourt counties. The same day it
was received, Chamberlain & Co. of Des
Moines, Iowa, sent Il bottle of Chamber
lain's collie, cholera and diarrhoea rem
edy to each of the lao post-oflices in
the four counties with the request that
it be given to some family afflicted with
the disease. Since then they have re-
ceived several letters from there, the
following is a copy Of one of them:

1t will be gratifying to the people of this
locality to know that they can now take

Harry Rumney, who has been engaged

Firing a Locomotive.

The work Of firing an engine comes very
near being skilled labor, especially on q
lightning run. Then one has to be feed
ing coal almost constantly from the start.
And the coal must not be thrown into the
firebox carelessly, but it must be placed
where it will do the most good. The
steam must be kept up to the figure, and
no great variations from the standard are
allowed. A fireman has SO much to do
with an engine off and on that if he is in.
telligent it is not long before he is able to
handle a locomotive oil right. But that
is not saying he gets one. I have been
firing for six years and my engine is not
yet in sight, although three years ago /
ran an engine several rips.-Firenan in
Globe Democrat.

A loving wife, u kind friend and
generous neighbor.
Just in the flush of womanhood,
When life is joyous and gay;
Just when youth is strongest.
And bright as a summers day.
Death, tho unccasing destroyer,
Has scattered her folds around;
And now with sad tears We lay you,
Beneath the grass.covsrsd mound.
Upon your grave we'll strew our flowers,
Although gone, we'll not forget you,
But remember you as a friend of ours.
